My story of what its like to be married to an Amway cult follower. I expose the lies that our upline told and what happens at Amway meetings and functions. I leave the explanations of why Amway is a poor business opportunity or the tool scam to other bloggers. This blog mainly exists to curse out my former upline, aka the cult leaders, and to let everyone know what kind of idiots I had to put up with. Feel free to join in or live vicariously!

Learn How To Trade Hours For Pennies In The Amway Scam

“What are you doing working a J.O.B.? You’re trading hours for
dollars!”

I’ve heard that phrase sneered at the audience countless times from the
speakers at Amway meetings. Platinum or Diamond they all put down anyone who
works for someone else.

Except in Amway where we trade hours for pennies and still end up in the
hole.

Ambot spent approximately 100 hours a month in Amway related shit. This
would include 3 or 4 board plans in living rooms each week, countless hours
studying Amway literature and products on their website, 2 or 3 Amway events a
month where a Diamond came to town, a day long rally once a month, not to
mention all the time spent trying to recruit new IBO’s or finding suckers to
buy the overpriced shitty Amway products. What about countless phone calls and
text messages each day from the fucking assholes in the Amway upline where he was expected to drop whatever
he was doing to give them his undivided attention for an hour or more?

What about my hours? And here I probably put in the required 10 to 15 hours
a week. So combined we put in between 140 to 160 hours a month. Wasted time
that we'll never get back.

OK to make the calculations easy lets knock off my time and focus on Ambot's
time and call it 100 hours a month. In return if we did 100PV that would be a check
from Amway for the month of about $10. So Ambot is earning .10 cents an hour.

Ambot is trading hours for pennies. Like everyone else stuck in the Amway
scam who can meet that minimum 100PV purchase each month to qualify for a
measly commission check.

Lets not even get into the cost of tools, attending functions, and their
related costs (travel, hotel, food) because he’s now in the hole hundreds of
dollars each month.

So how about that $10/hour cashier job compared to an Amway income? The
cashier earns the same amount in 1 hour working a job as Ambot does after
trading 100 hours on useless Amway bullshit.

If the cult leaders were telling the truth they’d call it trading dollars
for pennies but that doesn’t sound so good when they’re insulting prospective
recruits into the Amway cult.

Any business owner trades hours for dollars but hopefully most business
owners have a legitimate business earning them real money and they’re not
settling for a paltry Amway income that isn’t even a wage one could live on in
a 3rd world country. That’s something to think about. A worker in a 3rd world
country is trading hours for dollars and still making more than most North
American Amway IBO’s.

If I had to make a choice about going back to work or going back to Amway,
I’d rather trade hours for dollars working for a legitimate employer than
working more hours being a Scamway IBO and scamming others to lose their money
chasing hopeless dreams.

Anonymous- being an idiot in basic math is certainly an Amway job requirement. It is amazing how these Amway losers think going into debt and not making a profit makes them hot shot big shot business owners. Bunch of Amway losers.

Comments are moderated but we publish just about everything. Even brainwashed ambots who show up here to accuse us of not trying hard enough and that we are lazy, quitters, negative, unchristian dreamstealers. Like we haven’t heard that Amspeak abuse from the assholes in our upline!

If your comment didn’t get published it could be one of these reasons:1. Is it the weekend? We don’t moderate comments on weekends. Maybe not every day during the week either. Patience.2. Racist/bigoted comments? Take that shit somewhere else.3. Naming names? Public figures like politicians and actors and people known in Amway are probably OK – the owners, Diamonds with CDs or who speak at functions, people in Amway’s publicity department who write press releases and blogs. Its humiliating for people to admit their association with Amway so respect their privacy if they’re not out there telling everyone about the love of their life.4. Gossip that serves no purpose. There are other places to dish about what Diamonds are having affairs or guessing why they’re getting divorced. If you absolutely must share that here – don’t name names. I get too many nosy ambots searching for this. Lets not help them find this shit.5. Posting something creepy anonymously and we can’t track your location because you’re on a mobile device or using hide my ass or some other proxy. I attracted an obsessed fan and one of my blog administrators attracted a cyberstalker. Lets keep it safe for everyone. Anonymous is OK. Creepy anonymous and hiding – go fuck yourselves!6. Posting something that serves no purpose other than to cause fighting.7. Posting bullshit Amway propaganda. We might publish that comment to make fun of you. Otherwise take your agenda somewhere else. Not interested.8. Notice how this blog is written in English? That's our language so keep your comments in English too. If you leave a comment written in another language then we either have to use Google translate to put it into English so everyone can understand what you wrote or we can hit the Delete button. Guess which one is easier for us to do?9. We suspect you're a troublemaking Amway asshole.10. Your comment got caught in the spam filter. Gets checked occasionally. We’ll get to you eventually and approve it as long as it really isn’t spam.

About Me

I'm married to a former Ambot - one of those annoying commissioned Amway salespeople. Fortunately he saw the light of the horrible cult he was part of and ended his association. I'm here to report on the crap he took and I had to put up with. Hoping I might be able to help some poor souls who find themselves in the same situation I was - married to an ambot.
